‘Vishwaroopam II’ first look: Kamal Haasan pledges on the Tricolour

Tamil actor-filmmaker Kamal Haasan on Tuesday released the
first look poster of his multilingual film 'Vishwaroopam II' on his Twitter
timeline. The film is the sequel to his 2013 spy thriller ‘Vishwaroopam’ that
stirred a lot of controversies.

"With love my country and its people,” Kamal Hassan
wrote along with the first look image.

In the poster Haasan appears in a bright blue suit against
the backdrop of India Gate. His expression is pensive and his face is bandaged
on the chin and near the left eye. But the most strike thing is the National
Flag fluttering across his chest with his hand on it.

A release date for the movie has not been finalised yet, but
it is targeting this year. ‘Targetting release 2017’, reads the poster.

Haasan will be reprising his role of Research & Analysis
Wing agent Major Wisam Ahmad Kashmiri from the first part. Other actors like
Rahul Bose, Andrea Jeremiah and Pooja Kumar from the first part will also
feature in ‘Vishwaroopam II’, while veteran actress Waheeda Rahman is a new
addition.

‘Vishwaroopam II’ will also take on terrorism just like its
predecessor. While the 2013 movie was set in the US, the sequel will be shot in
India as well as several international locations.

Kamal Haasan has himself written and directed the movie and
is producing it under his banner Raajkamal Films International.
